Hi, deleterman! Long time! Anyway, since this is not a glitch, you should post your question in the Adventure Games Hints forum.

Reading the walkthrough, it seems pretty straightforward: Plaza with bins: Enter the plaza with bins. Sylvie says to build steps to get to the roof of the outhouse.
There is a trash bin at right and a crate at left that are movable. They can be pushed or pulled.
Sylvie can only walk one square at a time.
Move the trash bin at right to be in front of the big garbage bin at top right.
Move the crate to be in front of the round trash bin.
Climb up.

Have you done all of this? The walkthrough also has pictures.
Clean the mantel-ledge and fireplace: This part is very dark. You might need to raise the brightness of your computer and/or untick the shadows options at main menu.
Look close at the mantel of the fireplace and see 9 tiles-buttons with designs on them.
In inventory combine bough with moist napkin to get napkins on a bough.
Take the thread hanging from the protective cover of the furniture at foreground left. Use the thread on napkins on a bough.
Use the napkins tied with a thread to a bough on the middle dirtiest tile button.
Look down inside the fireplace. Take the small shovel.
Use broom on the soot of the fireplace and see 6 of the tiles similar to the ones on the mantel of the fireplace.
Use the small shovel (broom can also be used) and press the buttons in the order shown by the tiles inside the fireplace below.
From left to right, press the tiles in positions: 7 4 9 6 2 5.
Immediately, click the small shovel on the opening to the secret passage to stop it from closing.
If you still can't get it, we can probably find a video walkthrough for the game.

The video walkthrough I found is in multiple parts. You will have to go through the parts to find where you are in the game - hopefully you will be able to figure out where you are. You can find the first part here.The second part is here.And the third part is here.And the fourth part is here.Fifth part is here.Sixth part is here.Seventh part is here.Eighth part is here.Ninth part is here.Tenth part is here.Eleventh is here.Twelfth is here.And the last part is here.

Try looking at the video walkthrough too if you haven't already. I also found another walkthrough here.The walkthrough says: A secret door will start to open, then close. You have to quickly put the small shovel into the opening to wedge it open. If it closes, just push the tiles in sequence again; then wedge it open.

Did you try watching any of the videos Marian posted to see how it's done?

Marian posted a bunch of links above. Scroll up to find them. Just click on one that you think looks like the right place.

The second walkthrough that I posted the link to above says this: Use the key on the lock and the painting will swing open, revealing a safe. The combination to the safe is the number from the paper: 1565. To use the combination, click on each number in turn: 1, 5, 6, 5. The dial will automatically turn when you click on the number. If you get the combination wrong, the safe will just reset and you can start over. Click on the safe to open it.

It sounds like you should have gotten the hammer from the parking lot previously. Parking lot: Go right to the parking lot.
Van: Look inside the back of the van and see the crates. Use the key on the backdoor lock.
Enter and open the blue toolbox. Take the hammer and chisel.

So you DID find the disk, right? Just use the disk to install the game. When you first insert the disk, it should ask you what you want to do with it.

Is there only one disk for the game? Maybe try again and see if something comes up. Do you know how to look at your disk drive to see what's in it?

No, that's not it. But I don't know what you clicked on. You have to open up your File Explorer - the manilla folder icon in the taskbar - and see if you can see your disk drive listed. Did you try ejecting the disk and putting it back in?

But did you check out any of the steps I mentioned? I have lots of games that were made for previous versions of Windows that play just fine on Windows 10. That's why I need to know if you tried out any of the things?

But if you click on your Explorer icon and then click on your disk drive, it won't tell you that. So I don't understand what you're clicking on.
